Factors affecting Induction Noise

Post by P1LAYA-ZN »

Good day gents,

So, I've noticed my S3 8L has gone very quiet and sounds quite tame when going into boost, and this after replacing the stock TIP (damaged) with a Samco Silicone one and also doing a Cold Air induction and software.
Just wanted to know, what would cause this ?
SW, CAI or TIP ?
Does a CAI make the car go quieter or is the OEM TIP giving better flow ?
I'm gonna fiddle around weekend and take out the CAI (Also cos of the heavy October Rains) and see what happens.
Will also try and log it and measure the difference in Flow.
Car runs well, just the noise is all gone :???:
